  • Transportation History of the Philippines
    Transportation history of the Philippines This article describes the various forms of transportation in the Philippines. Despite the physical barriers that can hamper overall transport development in the country, the Philippines has found ways to create and integrate an extensive transportation system that connects the over 7,000 islands that surround the archipelago, and it has shown that through the Filipinos' ingenuity and creativity, they have created several transport forms that are unique to the country. Contents • 1 Land transportation o 1.1 Road System 1.1.1 Main highways 1.1.2 Expressways o 1.2 Mass Transit 1.2.1 Bus Companies 1.2.2 Within Metro Manila 1.2.3 Provincial 1.2.4 Jeepney 1.2.5 Railways 1.2.6 Other Forms of Mass Transit • 2 Water transportation o 2.1 Ports and harbors o 2.2 River ferries o 2.3 Shipping companies • 3 Air transportation o 3.1 International gateways o 3.2 Local airlines • 4 History o 4.1 1940s 4.1.1 Vehicles 4.1.2 Railways 4.1.3 Roads • 5 See also • 6 References • 7 External links Land transportation Road System The Philippines has 199,950 kilometers (124,249 miles) of roads, of which 39,590 kilometers (24,601 miles) are paved. As of 2004, the total length of the non-toll road network was reported to be 202,860 km, with the following breakdown according to type: • National roads - 15% • Provincial roads - 13% • City and municipal roads - 12% • Barangay (barrio) roads - 60% Road classification is based primarily on administrative responsibilities (with the exception of barangays), i.e., which level of government built and funded the roads.

The robustness of a road network against such attack is crucial to be studied because it may cripple its connectivity by simply shutting down these hubs. We show the important hubs in a road network based on network structure and propose a model for robustness analysis. By identifying important hubs in a road network, possible preparation schemes may be done earlier to mitigate random terrorist attacks, including defense reinforcement and transportation security. A case study of the Metro Manila road network is also presented. The case study shows that the most important hubs in the Metro Manila road network are near airports, piers, major highways and expressways. Keywords: PageRank, Terrorist Attack, Robustness 1. Introduction Table 1 Comparative analysis of different Roads are important access points because methodologies on network robustness indices connects different places like cities, districts, and Author Method Strength Weakness landmarks.

  • Battling Congestion in Manila: the Edsa Problem
    Transport and Communications Bulletin for Asia and the Pacific No. 82, 2013 BATTLING CONGESTION IN MANILA: THE EDSA PROBLEM Yves Boquet ABSTRACT The urban density of Manila, the capital of the Philippines, is one the highest of the world and the rate of motorization far exceeds the street capacity to handle traffic. The setting of the city between Manila Bay to the West and Laguna de Bay to the South limits the opportunities to spread traffic from the south on many axes of circulation. Built in the 1940’s, the circumferential highway EDSA, named after historian Epifanio de los Santos, seems permanently clogged by traffic, even if the newer C-5 beltway tries to provide some relief. Among the causes of EDSA perennial difficulties, one of the major factors is the concentration of major shopping malls and business districts alongside its course. A second major problem is the high number of bus terminals, particularly in the Cubao area, which provide interregional service from the capital area but add to the volume of traffic. While authorities have banned jeepneys and trisikel from using most of EDSA, this has meant that there is a concentration of these vehicles on side streets, blocking the smooth exit of cars. The current paper explores some of the policy options which may be considered to tackle congestion on EDSA . INTRODUCTION Manila1 is one of the Asian megacities suffering from the many ills of excessive street traffic. In the last three decades, these cities have experienced an extraordinary increase in the number of vehicles plying their streets, while at the same time they have sprawled into adjacent areas forming vast megalopolises, with their skyline pushed upwards with the construction of many high-rises.

  • Locking Private Sector Participation Into Infrastructure Development in the Philippines
    Transport and Communications Bulletin for Asia and the Pacific No. 72, 2003 LOCKING PRIVATE SECTOR PARTICIPATION INTO INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT IN THE PHILIPPINES Noel Eli B. Kintanar, Ma. Lourdes S. Baclagon, Rodolfo T. Azanza, Jr. and Rina P. Alzate* ABSTRACT The Government of the Philippines continues to pursue its policy of encouraging the private sector to participate in the financing, construction, management and operation of infrastructure services and facilities in the country. Through the BOT Law, (Republic Act No. 7718), the Government has put together a portfolio of approximately US$ 25 billion in infrastructure projects involving private sector investments. A number of these are big- ticket transport projects which could not be funded solely from government coffers in view of the magnitude of the capital investments required. To ensure the steady promotion of infrastructure projects that are ready for private sector investments, the Government established the Build-Operate- Transfer Center (BOT Center), whose mandate is to find technical, legal, financial, economic and institutional solutions to help government implementing agencies to make BOT projects work. This paper focuses on the role of the BOT Center in promoting private sector projects and also discusses BOT as a contractual arrangement under the BOT Law and considerations that the private sector makes in undertaking a BOT project. INTRODUCTION It is a fact that infrastructure projects are capital-intensive propositions. In many countries, the difficulty of financing both the construction and the operation and maintenance of infrastructure services * BOT Center, Department of Trade and Industry, 6/F, EDPC Building, Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) Complex, Malate, Manila, fax: (632) 525-4416; e-mail: [email protected].
